Chapter 704: Chapter 704: Wild Man?
Li Yufei knew he was doing it on purpose.
She looked at him, lifted her red lips, placed her hand on his shoulder, and gently kissed his Adam’s apple.
Rong Ling’s back stiffened, his entire body tensing again.
He didn’t expect that Li Yufei would turn around and challenge him.
Li Yufei: “I just want to see who has better self-control. You or me.”
Rong Ling slightly bit his lip, lowered his eyes to gaze into hers, and the next second, he scooped her up, cradling her on the sofa.
The curtains were drawn with a single press.
In the living room, only one light was lit.
In the dim light, she appeared even more beautifully hazy.
Rong Ling felt that, at this moment, even his breath was scorching.
The love for her filled his chest.
He kissed her again, pressing her down, one hand around her back, slowly falling onto the sofa…
…
Two days later.
The plane landed at Beijing Airport.
The assistant came to first class, stopping by a seat, softly waking the sleeping woman: “President Li, we’re at the airport.”
Li Yufei was originally leaning against the headrest, hearing the sounds by her ear, people in the cabin stand up one after another, heading toward the exit.
She took off her eye mask, slowly opened her eyes, the sunshade already lifted, she instinctively stretched out her hand, blocking the strong sunlight. The entire journey, she was catching up on sleep, waking up felt like all her bones were relaxed.
The assistant said: “Didn’t sleep well the night before last? You’ve been asleep since you got on the plane.”
Li Yufei said: “Didn’t sleep well at night.”
The assistant laughed with a hand over their mouth: “Looks like you couldn’t bear to part with your boyfriend!”
Li Yufei gave him a cool glance.
The assistant was so frightened they immediately shut their mouth.
Li Yufei said in a flat tone: “Shao Chen, when did you learn to joke with me?”
The assistant immediately resumed a serious expression: “President Li, before, I wouldn’t have dared to joke like this. Perhaps it’s because you’re in love, you haven’t noticed, but since being nourished by love, you’ve been smiling more lately.”
Li Yufei: “Have I?”
The assistant sincerely nodded.
Li Yufei furrowed her brows slightly, “No joking allowed.”
The assistant: “But it’s not working hours now. President Li, you’ve said it yourself, outside of work hours, a little joke won’t hurt.”
Li Yufei, her expression a bit awkward, cleared her throat, holding onto the armrest, slowly stood up.
The two exited the plane one after the other.
The assistant had already instructed the driver to come and meet them.
The assistant closely followed behind Li Yufei, just as they reached the terminal, their phone suddenly rang.
They answered the call, covering the mouthpiece, and upon hearing the other side, their expression turned a bit solemn: “Yes… we’ve just arrived… alright, I’ll check with President Li immediately.”
They hung up and quickly caught up to Li Yufei: “Old Mr. Li called, asking for you to return to Li Mansion immediately.”
Li Yufei said: “I’m a bit tired today, call back and say I’ll go tomorrow.”
The assistant looked troubled: “Over the phone, the old master insisted you must return today.”
Li Yufei paused her steps.
It seemed like there was something urgent to be discussed with her.
Li Yufei rubbed her temples in frustration, “Got it.”
Li Mansion.
The car stopped at the entrance.
Shao Chen got out of the car and opened the rear door, and Li Yufei alighted.
As she approached the door and pushed it open, the living room was empty.
The butler stepped forward: “Miss, you’re back!”
Li Yufei said: “I received a call from father telling me to come home for something important. Where is he?”
The butler: “The master is upstairs.”
Li Yufei sat down on the sofa.
The butler instructed a servant: “Pour tea for the young lady.”
“Yes.”
The butler: “I’ll go upstairs to fetch the master.”
With that, he hurried upstairs.
Moments later.
Old Mr. Li slowly descended the stairs, with Zhang Aiyun by his side.
Upon seeing Li Yufei, Zhang Aiyun couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
Li Yufei lowered her eyes, pretending not to have seen anything.
Old Mr. Li walked to the sofa and sat down slowly, only after he sat did Zhang Aiyun sit beside him.
Old Mr. Li: “Lately you’ve been so busy you’re like a dragon: present but invisible. What’s been keeping you occupied?”
Li Yufei: “What else could it be but company matters?”
Old Mr. Li: “I heard from your company people that you were abroad these past few days, and it wasn’t for business. Where did you go?”
Li Yufei said: “Just took a rare opportunity to relax abroad.”
Zhang Aiyun couldn’t hold back: “Relax? Sounds more like you went abroad to fool around with some wild man!”
Li Yufei’s fingers holding the teacup slightly tensed.
She raised her eyes, giving Zhang Aiyun a cold glance, then slowly sipped the tea, her face showing no ripples.
Old Mr. Li glared at Zhang Aiyun and then looked at Li Yufei: “Tell me, this man called ‘Rong Ling’, what’s his deal?”
Li Yufei: “Dad, where did you hear that?”
Zhang Aiyun: “Is there even a need to ask? Haven’t you been mingling with that man recently?”
Li Yufei smiled, casually placing the teacup on the coffee table, but with force.
“Bang!”
The bottom of the teacup made a sudden collision sound with the tabletop.
Zhang Aiyun flinched, glared at Li Yufei in suspicion.
Li Yufei raised an eyebrow: “Mingling? Ms. Zhang, do you even know how to use that word? I know you’re not very cultured, don’t know what words not to misuse, but having married into the Li Family for so many years, can’t you even read a book when you’re idle?”
Zhang Aiyun looked at Old Mr. Li: “Look at her acting so disrespectful, clearly not taking me seriously!”
Old Mr. Li kept a sullen face without speaking.
Zhang Aiyun turned back to Li Yufei: “So you admit to being involved with that man? Are you dating him?”
Li Yufei: “Is that not allowed?”
Zhang Aiyun was somewhat incensed: “What’s his status? A poor college student, even the money for studying abroad was borrowed, wasn’t it! I checked up on him, his family is rotten to the core, and he had a lot of debt before, which you helped clear! Yufei, do you have an addiction to keeping young men? That Li Cheng before was a freeloader, and now you find another one. Among all the men in the world, you don’t choose anyone but him! Moreover, look at the age difference between you two, aren’t you afraid of becoming a laughingstock?”
Li Yufei: “What laughingstock?”
Zhang Aiyun: “You are divorced and so much older than him, what would he see in you without your money and power, without being the Li Family’s eldest daughter, without managing a multinational company worth trillions!”
Li Yufei: “If that’s a laughingstock, you should have made that joke a long time ago.”
Zhang Aiyun: “What do you mean by that?”
